the official finding of donald trump's lifetime of contempt later in this hour when his niece, mary trump, joins our discussion. we begin tonight with donald trump's contempt for congress on the day where he urged a trump mob of republicans to go on to the capitol and fight like hell. those were his words on generous except. fight like hell. and his mob did that. we have more information today about republicans who believed, at this time, that donald trump was in control of the trump mob at the capitol. i know donald trump had the power to stop the attack on the capitol. that he had encouraged. cnn's reporting on newly-revealed text messages and possession of the january six committee, and in those messages, the techs obtains from the last trip of stuff, donald trump's third fired when i was chief of staff, rick mulvaney texted his successor mark meadows during the attack that he needs to stop the snow. can i do anything to help? >> nick mulvaney does not say he needs to try to stop this now. nick mulvaney obviously thinks it was fully within donald trump's power, his personal power, to t

donald trump's ness mary trump the host of "the mary trump show" and founder of the democracy defensefate of american democracy. i had a fascinating conversation with her on my new peacock show this week and wanted to share some of it with you. take a look. >> we are in a situation where the next two elections particularly i think 2022 will determine whether or not america in the future is a democracy or an autocracy. it's that serious. >> it seems like everything is so exigently pressing. i want to read the excerpt from "this will not pass" about trump's efforts to push the big lie around last year's runoffs in georgia. "trump believed he knew why conservative voters lacked enthusiasm for perdue and loeffler. he explaineds much to mitch mcconnell. brian kemp, the governor, defended the election as safe and secure even though biden won his state by a small margin. voters would not stand for this, trump believed, and neither should perdue and loeffler." trump's strategy in the georgia runoff was to continue to say the election was rigged but we know how that worked out for him in georg

joining us now, mary trump, former president trump's niece, the host of the mary trump show podcast and deserts, so thirsty, and reaching that sort of pond of possible relief that here is something that might actually shore up our democracy from the daily assault. i have to ask first your reaction to that new interview that josh dawsey does with your uncle, whose only regret about the insurrection turned deadly is that he wasn't marching with them. >> yeah, as usual, nothing he says in that interview is the truth. but it's less about the content of the interview than the fact that it even happened. one of the reasons we are in worse shape than we were when liz cheney sat for her interview, as you mentioned, is because there has been no accountability. democracy is literally on a knife's edge, and every day that passes, the donald is allowed to continue to spread his lies, that the republican party he leads, which is a countermajoritarian, anti-democratic party, they're able to, i guess you could say, keep their base riled up. meanwhile, they're doing everything in their power to make su

. >> jill, we often talk about donald trump's mary poppins' bag of legal problems. a judge said trump should have explained the methods he uses to store his records and efforts to locate the subpoenaed files. your reaction. >> absolutely. you cannot say i don't personally possess them when you're in charge of a big company. of course it's in the possession of someone within the company, but you are in charge. and so you can't evade your personal responsibility by saying, oh, it's not in my personal possession. of course it's not in his desk, he doesn't have his hands on it, but he can get it. and i think that the fine is something that will continue until he produces the documents. the fine can be doubled or tripled by the judge. he can be jailed for contempt of the court order, because he is violating a court order now. and so i think there are some consequences that will lead to some accountability, but it's not the same of find him guilty of the actual underlying crime. >> emily, in this ongoing conversation about accountability, you look at a lot of the polling o

we haven't had an official ambassador to ukraine since donald trump fired marie itn after that infamousne trump made to zelenskyy. she questioned why trump blocked the weapons congress authorized to send ukraine to fight russia in the donbas. secretary of state blinken and defense secretary austin made the trip to kyiv on sunday, becoming the highest ranking u.s. officials to visit. they flew separately into poland and then took a train across the border. >> we're seeing that when it comes to russia's warrings, russia is failing, ukraine is succeeding. russia has sought it's its principle aim to take away ukraine's sovereignty, to take away its independence. that has failed. >> we want to see the international community more united especially nato and we're seeing that and that's based upon the hard work of number one president biden, but also our allies and partners who have willingly leaned into this, with us as we've imposed sanctions, as we've moved very rapidly to demonstrate we're going to defend every inch of nato. [ chanting ] >> those who support a united nato breathed a sigh o

what was that like when adam schiff reads to you donald trump, he says marie yovanovitch is a disaster. as if you personally are running the motor pool at the us embassy in mogadishu had ruined somalia. what's it like when adam schiff is reading you that week? >> it was a complete surprise to me, i had no idea what was coming and when first he announced he was going to do this understandably there's the anticipation. what is he going to say, what could he say? then the actual to itself is recounted was ridiculous. it was absolutely ridiculous. trying to compose my face although when i look back at the video tplay that night of me listening to adam schiff, all my emotions were there for everybody to see including a bit of contempt because my eyes rolled . i couldn't believe the president of the united states would treat about something like that and even though he was attacking me it felt even in the moment that was more about him. it revealed more about him. it revealed that in fact the sorts of things that he was saying about how i had been treated were truebecause it was continued .

wh was it like adam schiff says, donald trump says that marie yovanovitch is a disaster-- >> it was a-- i had no idea, and he said this, what was he going to say, what could he say. and then the actual tweet itself, as you just recounted, was ridiculous, it was absolutely ridiculous, and so, you know, trying to compose my face, although when i looked back at the video that was played that night of me listening to adam schiff recounting this, i mean, all of my emotions were there for everybody to see, including, frankly, a little bit of contempt, because my eyes rolled. i couldn't believe that the president of the united states would do something like this and even though he was attacking me, it really felt, even in the moment, that it was more about him. it revealed more about him. it revealed that, in fact, the sorts of things i was saying about how i had been treated was absolutely truth because it was continuing. i think he demeaned himself by doing that. and i think the other thing is, he really handicapped the republican party trying to defend the president. again, i don't know w

but at the time, one of the people who is actually fighting trump's corruption from behind the scenes, was the u.s. ambassador to ukraine marie yovanovitch, for that she was removed from her post, and forced to leave the country in the dead of night. her new memoir is titled lessons from the edge, ambassador marie yovanovitch joins me now. >> ambassador, thanks so much for making time for us, we all knew that donald trump was withholding aid from ukraine, and that was certainly bad. he got impeached for it, but looking back with the benefit of hindsight, is it even worse how this played out than we originally thought? >> well, i think it just shows that president trump is using ukraine as a pawn for his own personal reasons. rather than working for our national security interests, which included having a strong ukraine he was looking out for his own interest, and i think that's a bad signal, not only is it wrong, and a bad for the american people but it sends a signal to dictators around the world, that deals can be done with that administration. we can in the united states. >> i was going to say, can you help set the record

you look at marie, she has so much in common with former president trump.s if not opponents of nato. both are really very closely tied and in her case, even financial ties to vladimir putin and russia, and then you have the whole anti-immigrant sort of identity politics played, and so i think there's a lot in common though, the fact that he's leading it has expanded his lead in the polls in the last week would suggest maybe good news for biden in that, you know, people react, especially now that the situation at war is the forefront of all of our minds. >> sandra: karl, want to take a bit of a pivot here. bernie sanders, former presidential campaign manager wrote a memo that recently leaked that happens to mention he has not ruled out a run in 2024 if biden does not run. is this about democrats still feeling the bern, karl, or is this about sanders and his former team positioning themselves a little and calling out biden and schumer in the process? >> i think it's a call for a new generation of older democratic leadership. let's pick the one guy who is olde

the last ambassador, of course, marie yovanovitch, was pushed out by former president donald trump in 2019 when his legal team, namely rudy giuliani, began pressuring ukrainian officials to dig up dirt on hunter biden. i don't think we spent enough time about all of that and how, in any way, it connects to where we are today. but let's talk about the ambassador going back to ukraine. i feel like that is an incredibly important, symbolic message. >> mika, you are right. it is an important, symbolic message. it is also a substantive message. to have a confirmed ambassador out there, ambassador confirmed by the senate and has full support of the president, that is important. let's also be clear, my deputy while i was there, she's been doing a great job and will be happy to see ambassador brink show up, as well. so it is important to have an ambassador out there to talk face-to-face. it just matters, to be able to do that on a daily basis. >> also, it's sending a message. we're here for the long haul. it is the long game. ukraine is not going anywhere. >> ukraine is not going anywhere. th

marie le pen has long admired vladimir putin. they are running for president in 2017, she said that her own policies were represented by president trumpnd putin. despite the ongoing war in ukraine, the pen, if elected, would like to reduce payments and legal deference to the european union. and two and francis senior relationship with nato. last time that happened in france was 1966. and it took until 2009 for france to regain its senior leadership in nato. looking at this from afar, it might seem like the idea of a le pen presidency is simply unheard of. and a far cry from reality based on recent french history. however, as americans who lived through the 2016 election, we know that unheard of can very quickly, in a day, become reality. coming up next, russia has rejected requests for a truce in ukraine for this holy day. it is orthodox easter today. we are bringing you a live report from lviv. rt from lviv en you and a life-changing accident. but are these lines enough? a subaru with eyesight...

trump protege, a little softer and more mel ifluous. as far as it affects ukraine, marine le pen, who is the daughter of jean marie le pen, who founded the national front, she would take france out of nato. she's anti-immigration. she's anti-globalization. her party once upon a time wanted to take france out of the european union. it's the same kind of weaponization of grievance against globalization for people, for voters who feel left out, the lesser educated, the lesser employed. so it would be a grievous wound against the west and against nato and against the european union and against democracy if ms. le pen won. >> i am glad that you went broad because it is important to understand that context. i want to ask you on ukraine specifically, you and i have spoken a lot about the various sanctions. there were new sanctions imposed just last week. there could soon be more to come. your sense of whether or not these sanctions have been having their intended impact. and i know you and i have spoken often about the fact that this is a long-tail strategy. what can be done in the short term, are we seeing those dividends? >> yes. we have talk

marie le pen over putin. recent polling shows macron's lead growing, but low voter turnout is expected on sunday. today, macron warned voters that nothing is decided yet. calling on brexit and donald trump'sautionary tales. joining us is the former french ambassador to the united states, also a distinguished fellow with the atlantic council. mr. ambassador, thank you for being with us. what is it for the european union if the president's changed on sunday? what about nato? and for that, the world? >> actually you know, marie le pen in the campaign of 2017, when she was already out against emmanuel macron was in favor of brexit, leaving the european union. when she was understood that it was really impossible with the french voters, she says she wants to stay in the european union but she wants to change it. she wants to transform it into what she calls, an alliance of sovereign nations. in other words, it's brexit without saving it. it's really lee naming the european union. on top of that, as you have said, the links with putin are very strong. and even if she has condemned the invasion of ukraine, of course she was obliged to do it, she has said after the war, she wants david alliance w
